We so loved Open Access
The SciELO Program was created in the late 1990s when the idea of free access to scholarly content began to gain momentum, even before the term "open access" had been coined.

Felix Haslers scharfsinniger Essay ist eine Streitschrift gegen den grassierenden biologischen Reduktionismus und die überzogene Interpretation neurowissenschaftlicher Daten: ein Plädoyer für Neuroskepsis statt Neurospekulation.
